It may be difficult to define mental illness and to then apply the definition without making some mistakes, but most people who are mentally healthy will conclude that when it comes to guns and explosives, it makes some sense to try to design and apply some sensible definitions.

Don't let the left confuse the issue. Note my post 8, the standard is clear and decades old. And already in the public record, since virtually all cases involve court (or other authority) ordered commitment. The only issue is whether the states are willing to provide the information ot the NICS system.

*insert image of gay parade here* Questions?

And you have just declared yourself mentally ill and too dangerous to have a gun - any non-PC tendencies are a clear demonstration of anti-social behavior and must be modified.

I can almost believe that those who began this PC BS so many years ago had it in their minds that they would someday be able to use it as a standard to declare those who didn't buy into it as mentally ill and a threat to society with gun control and other enslavement plans in mind.
